I am saddened...

...By the deaths today of Jonathan Miller and Clive James. They weren't contemporaneous at Cambridge, but nevertheless were both great adornments to the university. I rated Clive James. Miller didn't need any judgement of mine. The man who could write to Richard Ingrams, Christopher Booker and the Private Eye editorial board in the early '60's starting with the line "You fucking stupid, irresponsible cunts" doesn't need anyone to defend him. Even when dead.
